For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

For anyone letting property in or around Kettlesing, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Kettlesing?

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How to care for the finish
  • What preparation is included
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the area is dry

Related advice

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Pressed steel baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Cast iron baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Victorian roll-tops

Why repair rather than replace?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Same prices wherever you are

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
